    First time refinishing a gun stock

    I have a Remington 600 that was my grandmother's gun. While the gun shoots incredibly well, the stock isn't much to look at. I've thought about refinishing it for awhile and yesterday I jumped in. Other than a few hours of YouTube videos I don't have any experience or knowledge on stock...

    Help IDing old cartridge

    I found this casing on the ground over the weekend. I'm curious what cartridge it may have been a part of. It's 1.775" long by 0.57" outside diameter (of the still rounded end) with a wall thickness of 0.025". So just over .50 caliber give or take. No head stamp is visible. The area had a...

    Browning Superposed Lightning insight

    I have an opportunity to buy a Browning Superposed Lightning Trap made in 1970. It's in mint condition. 30" barrels, fixed modified and full choke. Standard rib (not the wide boulevard style rib). Anyone know much about this model? @Ben Lamb ? I've been searching but not coming up with a lot...

    Fuzzy meats

    I tried my hand at dry cured sausage this summer. The thought of fermenting meat with a lactobacillus and coating it in a penicillium mold is a bit unnerving but I figured I made enough sour beer in the past (on purpose) and survived. So why not. I mostly used a wild pig for the Spanish...

    Bow for a kid - free

    2008 Diamond Liberty bow. If you know a kid who wants to get into archery, it's yours. You just pay shipping. I bought this for my wife years ago, she never shot it much. I used it bowfishing a few times but overall I'm sure it has less than 400 shots through it. You might want to replace the...

    Lithium vs AGM battery for camper

    I'm interested in hearing experiences with lithium vs. AGM batteries for a camper or RV. I'm looking to upgrade my old marine battery to something with a much higher amp hours rating to allow for extended use while on trips. We rarely if ever stay at camp grounds with shore power. Seems a 200 ah...

    Seed removal from clothing

    What tips do you all have for removing seeds from clothing? Not sure what kind of grass I got into today but the seed heads were brutal. Sharp enough to pierce skin. Anything that works quicker other than individually plucking them out? P.S. the walk was still worth it.

    Taste testing wild pig meat

    I shot my first wild pig this weekend. Turned out to be a big, gnarly boar (only one I had a shot at). He had a ugly wound in top of his shoulders I had to cut way around. I expect to grind most of him. But before I go through the effort, would cutting a serving from his back strap and cooking...

    Trouble shooting 6.5 grendel in AR-15

    I already picked @Mthuntr brain on this one. Figured I'd see what the rest of the group's thoughts are. I took my AR in 6.5 Grendel out for the first time today. I was shooting 123 gr Hornady ELD factory ammo. When I loaded the first bullet I noticed the bolt was fairly tight on closing. I...

    Free GPS unit. Works fine, I just don't use it in this day of phone apps and InReach. I would prefer it go to a kid who is excited to get out and explore the woods. Comes in original box with instructions and USB cable. Runs on 2 AA batteries. I'll pay shipping, just can't promise it'll get...

    Lever action restorations

    I'm debating a project with an old Winchester model 94 that has been in my family a long time. Like most 94s, it was a 'working man's gun' that got used every deer season and didn't just sit in the gun cabinet, so it has seen better days. Curious if anyone has restored a lever action, any...

    Masticatory muscle myositis

    Took my 5 yr old lab to the vet this morning after he has had pain lately with his mouth. The vet diagnosed him with masticatory muscle myositis. It's an autoimmune disease that affects the muscles that control the jaw. The vet said right away, "this is not good." Treatment is a steroid to...

    2 man crosscut saw

    I've been looking at this crosscut saw in my garage for a few years since my dad gave it to me. I don't know the history of it other than it was up in my grandfather's barn since before I was around. Anyway, I cleaned it up with a brass wire wheel and some WD-40 yesterday. I can't find any...

    Help with front sight dovetail mount

    Looking for some tech support. I ordered a Lyman hooded front sight and a front mount to replace the factory post sight. The mount and sight have a 3/8" dovetail. The dovetail on the sight slides all the way through the mount. It does not wedge tight and there is no set screw. Tech support...

    Hanging Euro elk skull - ideas?

    I just moved into a new house. I have a big Euro elk skull that needs to go up on the wall, otherwise it just sits on the floor and is in the way. The room I'd really like to hang it only has 8' ceilings and it doesn't go up the wall high enough to be out of the way before the tines hit the...
